FlixBus is a travel startup that was created not specifically out of personal experiences of its founders but from gutsy opportunism.
Daniel Krauss, Jochen Engert and André Schwämmlein realized that the deregulation of the German bus market would open up the market to competition, both at the operator and booking platform level.
It combined the two elements with a smart leasing system that aggregated and branded smaller operators across Germany, connecting dozens of cities.
The business has since expanded into numerous countries around Europe and, more recently, in the U.S.
It has also taken on the domestic rail sector, going up against a giant in the shape of Deutsche Bahn.
Engert joins us at the latest guest on How I Got Here.
HIGH is a weekly show produced by PhocusWire and Mozio, aimed at getting the inside stories behind startups and innovation in travel and transportation.
It's hosted by PhocusWire's editor in chief, Kevin May, and Mozio co-founder and CEO David Litwak.
